Introduction

Milbourne Lodge is a Pre-Prep and Prep School for children aged four to thirteen. Founded in 1912, the school has a rich and proud tradition of preparing children for Common Entrance and Scholarship exams to the country’s most prestigious and well known public schools.

Located in Esher, Surrey, the School is housed in an elegant Victorian mansion which is situated within a quiet, leafy suburb. Our Pre-prep and Prep year groups are taught in separate, adjacent buildings and the school enjoys considerable grounds of some eight and a half acres of Surrey countryside, with the additional facility of adjoining woodland. Our impressive grounds facilitate enthusiastic participation in daily sports, a long held tradition at Milbourne Lodge.

Milbourne Lodge is co-educational for up to 200 pupils.Traditionally the School attracts a higher number of boys than girls. Nevertheless, many parents of girls who are looking for a strong academic preparatory school education also choose Milbourne Lodge and girls are well catered for socially, pastorally and academically.

Milbourne Lodge has long enjoyed a nationwide reputation for academic excellence and Art, Music and Sport have also reached exceptionally high standards. Entry to the Pre-Prep School is non-selective with progression to the Prep School determined by satisfying our standard entry requirements. Children wishing to join the school in the Prep department undergo an admissions test.
